• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Rear Rack

I received my rear rack today from MBL Innovations and mounted it. First class design and a piece of art. This rack might be the best quality built farkle I have ever installed on any of my bikes. It is indestructible. Thanks Maurice for your input before I ordered it and it is easy on and easy off and gives me plenty of options for taking the F3 on weekend trips. With a Givi adaptor top plate, I can use my top box or just throw a big dry bag on the rack and still have the rear seat for passenger or luggage. I can hold off on the Bushtec trailer hitch for now and just use the Bushtec trailer behind my GS 1200.
 
The MBL Innovations rack is a quality piece and should hold any amount of weight you want to put back there, the quick release is a nice feature also.
 
Her ya go.

I got to handle one at the rally and was blown away. It is indeed a first class piece and high on my list of farkles to had. I think it would be awesome with an adventure touring aluminum top box on it but the downside is you would cover up the spider and that is too cool to cover up.
 
F3T and F3 Limited

These new models for 2016 also have the passenger grab rail. So I'm thinking this rack will also fit without interfering with things like the passenger backrest.
 
This rack is working out great. I got the universal Givi adaptor for monokey top boxes from Twisted Throttle and it works on the rear rack.
